WATERTOWN, Mass. — The manhunt that brought the Boston area to a near standstill on Friday came to a dramatic close when a homeowner spotted the suspect hiding inside a boat on his property.

The break came around nightfall, when the man emerged from his home and spotted a blood stain on the cover of the boat. He pulled back the tarp and saw a bloody Dzhokhar Tsarnaev hiding inside, police said. After an exchange of gunfire, he was seized and taken away in an ambulance.

On Saturday afternoon, the Massachusetts State Police released the following images from the investigation via Twitter. They were shot from a helicopter using thermal imaging technology.
